[Squirrel-sql-develop] Problems with Mac-installation of 3.8.0

[Martin L. <la...@ru...>]

After installing the 3.8.0-version on my Mac, it fails to start with a 
message:

     Error: Could not find or load main class JavaVersionChecker

This is caused by the squirrel-sql.sh script attempting to set 
SQUIRREL_SQL_HOME to `dirname "$0"`/Contents/Resources/Java. Since the 
script is located in /Applications/SQuirreLSQL.app/Contents/MacOS/, this 
will produce the invalid path 
/Applications/SQuirreLSQL.app/Contents/MacOS/Contents/Resources/Java. 
The rest of the code ends up trying to locate versioncheck.jar in 
/Applications/SQuirreLSQL.app/Contents/MacOS/lib/

The simple solution is to use ln in /Applications/SQuirreLSQL.app:

     /Applications/SQuirreLSQL.app$ ln -s Contents/MacOS/squirrel-sql.sh

But I guess a better solution is to fix the script so it actually finds 
the lib-folder.
